Sweetest Scandal
What Kind of Woman Are You?


Seto kept his promise to accompany Amee all day yesterday. He even accidentally slept on the sofa of Amee's room rather than sleeping in the prepared guest room. The man wanted to remember the place where his mistake made Amee and Randu end with the word divorce.


Seto had woken up a few minutes ago, he saw Amee squirming. The woman began to wake up in her long sleep. He approaches Amee and becomes the first person Amee sees when she opens her eyes.


"Morning!" greet Amee with a fluffy smile. The woman seems not to care about the problems she is currently facing or does not remember it.


He got up and pulled Seto's hand until the man sat by his side. "Thank you for not leaving!"


Seto just nodded. He continued to look at Amee with a look of pity. "Why?"


"Do you need anything? Maybe you should go back to check yourself out!" Amee frowned then shook her head. "But right now you need that. Drugs are not enough!"


"Rather than drugs or coming back to the psychiatrist I need you here!" amee said without any burden at all.


Seto sighed softly. He chose silence and gently rubbed Amee's newly woken messy hair.


The man realized, it is now free to say to Amee if the woman needs to be consulted again considering what happened yesterday to the woman. However, at this time he chose to obey first what Amee wanted.


"Why?" seto asked in surprise when he saw Amee's face that turned quickly into moody. "Missing your baby?"


Amee did not answer, The woman chose to hug the body of Seto who was both just waking up. He closed his eyes, hiding his sadness at the loss of his beloved baby and also the loss of Randu.


Amee shook her head as Seto was about to let go of his embrace. He tightened that embrace. "Don't let go, please!" pinta Amee is hopeful. "I love the smell of your body. Can it be like this every day?" the girl's murmur was clearly still heard by Seto.


"Am, can it be released? I feel claustrophobic!" Because Seto's speech made Amee forced to let go of his embrace. He moved away and watched Seto.


"What's wrong?" Amee. "All right!" Seto rattled Amee's hair and got up. He opened the door and let Sika in with breakfast for Amee.


"Mama!" Amee doesn't seem to like Sika's arrival. He then turned to look at Seto who was silent. "Where are you going?"


"Sorry, Am. But I have to go home. I promise I'll be here again soon. I promise!" The man without hesitation kissed Amee temple and of course made the woman so excited, even Sika who saw was happy.


"Excuse me!"

"It's time for breakfast. Mama hope your drama cried like yesterday is no more now. Forget Randu and start a new life with Seto or whoever you want!"


Sika handed the plate containing fried rice to Amee. "Want Mama a bribe?" Sika asked with a sharp look to Amee who was silent.


Amee snorted a little then took the rough plate. He just hugged her and stared with no interest. "Why? Are you afraid it doesn't taste good?"


"Well, no empathy at all? Mama thought my sadness was just yesterday and now isn't it?"


"certain. Today you are as usual. What do you make sad anyway? A stretcher? You don't even love her. If it's Safira, forget about the baby. Given its origin makes Mama angry!"


Amee did not reply to Sika's words. He chose to ignore Sika who was vaporizing his emotions. He tried to enjoy his breakfast which still felt bland.


***


Unbeknownst to Sika, Amee gets out of the house. This time he tried hard even though it felt so hard. She could not just divorce with Randu not because she loved the man who was still her husband. However, because he did not know when Seto would accept him. He was too afraid to step on his own after all this time there was a Pandu who always gave strength.


With doubt Amee knocked on the door of Randu's apartment. He waited with worry.


"Miss Amee!" greet Bi Siti who was standing behind him.


Amee turned her head and saw the middle-aged woman carrying some of her groceries on the left and right of her hands. "Why not go in? Mas Randu is in the loh!"


"Mas Randu doesn't work, Bi?"


"So he said he wanted to work from home first, Neng. Pity Sapphira last night had a fever, but the dawn had been checked by a doctor and he said no papa!"


Bi Siti opened the door and invited Amee in, without hesitation the woman followed her.


He noticed the apartment that still looked the same as the last time he came. His gaze was fixed towards the door he believed had a Pandu inside.


"Miss. What do you want to drink?" tanya Bi Siti disperse the reverie of Amee.


"Ah, eem, it's up to Aunty!" The woman nodded. "I'll go to the room first!" Amee left Bi Siti who was watching herself with a look of pity.


"I'm sure you're here, Mas" murmured Amee. With doubt the woman held the doorknob, but as the doorknob moved down she let it go and retreated.


Her smile expanded when she saw the face of the man she had not seen all day yesterday. "Mas!"


"Why is it here?" Randu's gaze was too flat. The question also gave Amee goosebumps.


The woman shifted her body and gave way to Randu who went away with a dirty milk bottle. Hearing Safira's whining sound made Amee rush into the room and meet the baby.


"Hi, you know Mama's coming, huh?" Amee took off her bag and put it on the nightstand. He sat on the edge of the bed and noticed Sapphira squirming uncomfortably.


"You must know Mama's coming, right? Miss Mama?" Amee was about to touch Sapphira, but was stopped when she heard Randu's voice forbidding her from touching the baby.


"Why are you here? Today the court will send a lawsuit to your house!"


Amee looked at Randu in disbelief. He tried to brace himself, but hearing the word divorce coming back from Randu's mouth made him weak again. "Mas, please don't do this. We can fix everything!"


"Don't force. I let you go so you can be with the man you love!" Randu ignored Amee's cries by exiting the room after Bi Siti entered.


Amee wiped her tears, she picked up her bag and walked out of the room just like that.


"Better now you're home." Sandu was already standing in front of the exit. He held the door and opened it. However, Amee quickly withdrew Randu's hand.


"I still want to be here, Mom. Where could I have gone when I found out my son was sick. He needs me!" Amee looked at Randu with a pleading gaze.


"alright. But, release!" Amee. He let go of Randu's hand. "I hope this is the last time you're here. After that, live your own life."


"Why are you so bad, Mom? Is it because he's your son with Aileen?"


Randu. He was simply unwilling to stare at Amee who looked so fragile at this moment. "But he's my son, Mas. I love her."


"After you know everything? You still believe in your affection for Sapphira?" randu asked with an unexpected look, as if doubting Amee's affection for Sapphira. "Didn't you hate that baby one bit?"


Amee. "If I hate, it's been since the beginning, Mom. I love Sapphira though she's your son and Aileen. I can't even hate Aileen knowing she's the woman you love now, not me!" Amee bit her lips hard. He's down.


"What kind of woman are you? You should have hated us and started your life by forgetting us from now on!" Sandra started to feel frustrated. He approached Amee and held both of her shoulders with a strong squeeze. Ignoring Amee who grimaced sick because of her actions.


"I can't, Mom. Taking you off is suicide for me. Because from the beginning there was only you, nothing else!"


"Huh. I let you stay here at the moment. But all of that can't change anything. We're going to keep getting divorced and I hope you can forget everything or even hate me, at least!" Randu looked at Amee's sparkling eyes and nodded. "For my guilt to be reduced a lot!"


"Thank you, Mom." Amee turned around and went to the room, but only a few steps stopped and turned back to look at Randu. "I can't hate you, Mom." After that, he stepped away again. She even smiled so sweetly with the remains of tears on her cheeks.
